Love alone has never been enough to keep two people together. Relationships take work.
No heart would ever break if there wasn’t love in it.
It is one of the amazing things about relationships where the person we love most is unique in their ability to drive us crazy. Every relationship has its own dynamic, and sometimes we can even see trouble coming. When the relationship dynamic is working well, it carries us into a future we are excited to meet. When it goes awry, well… “Where did we go wrong?!” Hopefully, those are the moments when we reach out for help.
Couples therapy can help you grow into what your love makes possible.
“Couples in crisis may present in many different ways; content issues and personality styles run the gamut— but whether theatrically voiced or floating in the ether, something is always the same— the shock, the fear of collapse, the profound confusion over what is going on— a situation that incites extreme reactivity, paranoia, hypersensitivity, the feeling of ‘carrying my guts in a bag,’ as one man said.” — Virginia Goldner
